    Hell yeah. I love beans, eat them nearly everyday, and preach how awesome they are.

    Maybe I should join the cult 😅

    In a local shop, they have these massive jars of pre-cooked white beans, which are really great. I keep them in the fridge and when a meal could do with a bit more sustenance, I just scoop a few spoonfuls into there.

    Works really well for curries and tomato sauce, but honestly, I’d have trouble naming a meal where it doesn’t fit (assuming that meal doesn’t already have a ton of protein). Yesterday, I did the beans on toast thing by basically just chucking beans on toast, seasoning them and then microwaving the lot. For an extremely lazy meal, that was actually quite decent.

    The first mention of their name is “Legumati” and the rest is “Leguminati”. I’m guessing the first one is an error.

    Sous vide is mainly used for meats but you can do some neat things with it and beans. I’ve had lentils come outv with an almost caviar texture/feel.

      Sous vide vegetables are underrated in general. It can intensify the flavor of the natural vegetable itself or the seasonings you’ve added, without sacrificing texture or color.

        Yup, the regular people are the reason the world is burning, definitely not the billionaires and corporations burning tons more fuel and dumping waste in drinking water.

      • Yeah not all meat is as bad for the environment as its made out to be. A vast majoriry of land can support grazing but not crop farming.

        A grazed paddock will sequester more carbon than an empty one.

        real grass fed meat (like what we have here in australia) is actually a carbon negative product since it is sequestering carbon.

        The shit meat u have in the states that tastes like cardboard thats fed grain in a barn is what actually is fucking the environment.

      there’s something about food that always gets a strong reaction. you tell people to drive less, recycle, shop differently, its whatever, so why are people so defensive about changing what they eat?

        People are really weird about food. Like, really fucking weird.

        I cook food for small groups of people (2-10 at a time) and have to find ways to make sure they’re all happy while not having to cook something different for each person. Sometimes it’s really hard with people’s hangups about food.

        I used to be a really picky eater, but through just growing up and naturally changing, and also putting in a decent amount of effort to force myself to like foods that I previously didn’t, I now have a very broad palate and like most foods. It’s very frustrating to me when I have to work around people who eat like toddlers.

        And I’m not talking about allergies or dietary restrictions. Only preferences.

          • Ive tried the green eggs and ham and they dont compare to the real thing. The texture is wrong. The nutrition profile is different. The flavours are a cheap approximation (like vanillin approximating vanilla). The fat distribution is wrong.

            And it feels artificial and processed with 1000 additives and fillers.

            And u to can have all this for double the price of a good ol slab of real cow.
